  1. Hey Hookit - Looks like Nicholas might have been a nothingburger in Port A. Was it? Mustang Island Airport listed very little rain over the past three days. Wind looked a little heavier than normal. How was it IRL? Did Old Town or Whispering Sands have flooding?
  2. I like all you mention. My wife didn't like McD & D. She didn't like how the DI treated the DS. I like just about anything with Jason Watkins. He killed as Roger in Hold the Sunset. Also love Brenda Blythen. Interesting to see her early on, as a young attractive mother in Labors of Erica. Not all that good a comedy and a horrid laugh track, but great to see the change as she aged.

  4. We enjoyed Benidorm, Death in Paradise, and Silent Witness. First was a crazy comedy, second was light mystery/cop show, third was more serious mystery show.
  5. What? In a town where hardly anyone wears a mask or socially distances? I wonder what the vaccination rate is for PA (vs all of Nueces Co).
  6. My son had that on his wall. Years later, after he moved out, I used his old room as my computer room and put his old Queen bicycle race poster up.
  7. That is cool, and my four grandchildren really enjoyed it. Kind of a pain to get up at dark thirty to drive from PA to PINS to watch it, but really a great experience. How to See a Sea Turtle Hatchling Release - Padre Island National Seashore (U.S. National Park Service) (nps.gov) They all have enjoyed the Aquarium several times, also.
  8. I've been trying out different combinations with the grilled peppers and onions. I added them to the Avocado Bacon Burger, subbed pepper jack cheese, and subbed creamy pepper sauce for mustard. Messy, but tasty. I also tried the BBQ Chicken Strip Sandwich, subbed creamy pepper sauce for the BBQ sauce, added grilled peppers and onions, and subbed out the cheese for pepper jack. I enjoyed. Lastly (so far) I ordered a regular Patty Melt and added the grilled peppers and onions. I liked better than a regular Patty Melt, but not as good as the other two. I am going to look at other combinations. As you may be able to tell, I was a Monterrey Melt fan.
  9. Yep. Have it and BritBox.
  10. I used to be an Owl, a good ol' Owl, too... How many critters do we have on this board?
  11. Great info. If anyone heads over to visit London, you can visit Gilwell after about an hour long train ride. They have a trading post there, too.
  12. I understand no picture, but you forgot location.
  13. That is so hard to except!
  14. Is that you, Greg?
  15. Second on the little sparrow being a fine singer. She got a lot of pushback here after that crappy commercial with Non, je ne regrette rien.
  16. Scared this guy up while weed eating this morning. He scampered under the steps of the deck. Racer? Real pretty snek.
  17. I like the fact that a lot of the HEB/HCF brand salad dressings aren't made with HFCS.
  18. Abuela Gringa likes this. I like the crunchy of the same brand. Peanuts with a touch (<1%) of salt.
  19. And don't forget Sassy!
  20. Wife and I always loved Arturo's. Haven't been south for ages. Between Covid and the threat of cartel violence, it will probably be much longer.
  21. Enjoyed Agatha Raisin. No Offence is another good one. Joanna Scanlan is a very good comedic actress. Now watching "New Zealand's Midsommer Murders" The Brokenwood Mysteries.
  22. "Your mom is a special lady and you promised her a video call on her special day." I actually dislike all ATT's commercials showing cable internet preventing/delaying/corrupting transmissions. I have cable internet and it is many, many times faster than the only ATT product available to me (DSL) and many people. Most of us don't live in a gigabyte area (ATT or Google.) This commercial grates on me anyway in that a mother would be so petty and the son so stupid he wouldn't call and explain. I do, however, identify with the dad, making the best of the situation.
  23. He's already written his retirement song: Well, I love this life but it's doing me inJust in case I don't ever see you againI had a real good time
